Question

Bot can not use Recorder action to click in a pop-up dialog box when browser is opened by bot

If I open Chrome with Browser package or Application package, Recorder package can not capture dialog box and send an error when try to capture the element.

 

However, if I open Chrome manually, Recorder package perfectly works capturing all dialog boxes.

 

I try with everything that I know, so maybe it's a bug. Can anyone tell me how to fix it?

 

 

According to v.24 release notes:

 

Support for pop-up windows and dialog boxes in Google Chrome...

You can now capture the pop-up windows, alert dialog boxes, confirmation dialog boxes, and prompt dialog boxes that appear. You can do this by using the Recorder > Capture or Start recording option.

 

Thank you so much.

    Hi @Álvaro Gata​ ,

     

    Could you try using a If: Object Exists Action on the Popup box and nest a Simulate Keystrokes: Esc Action inside of it?

     

    Kind Regards,
